How can I upload pictures from EOS M3 to my computer wirelessly?

NEPix — Thu, 28 Jul 2016 21:04:58 GMT

I have two EOS M3's--one about a year old, which uploads effortlessly, and a new one with firmware V1.0.1, which refuses to upload any image to my computer and refuses to upload RAW files to the Image Gateway. I don't care about the Image Gateway; would always upload direct to my PC, but this is not possible with the 'new" M3 although it is easy with the old one. Anybody know how to get around this problem? The new M3 connects to the Image Gateway but refuses to pause at my PC to drop off the images and won't upload RAWs. I can see both cameras on the router website, plus the PC, but don't know how to interconnect them. There must be a way! !

I don't think I will suggest that you upgrade the other to the new firmware and see if it works the same!

Instead I suggest you call Canon.

Looks like a 1.1.0 is now available.

I have talked to Canon support three times by telephone (probably 2 hours of chat time total) and swapped two or three emails. They have not been able to get the new M3 to upload direct to the computer and have not been able to get it to upload RAWs to CIG.

Well if V 1.0.1 was worse than V1.0.0, why would you expect V1.1.0 to be better? I am reluctant to take another chance with CAnon firmware on this camera. I know V1.0.0 works that that's what I want! Canon insists there's no way to revert to an earlier version; behaves like they never heard of it.

Maybe, just maybe, V1.1.0 fixes what might be wrong in the previous version, V1.0.1. I do not upload wirelessly, so I cannot speak from experience about your issue.
